| | A '''Pogo Guy''' is a species of pogo stick-using [[Shy Guys]] that make its first and so far only appearance in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', where they are first encountered in [[Rail Lift]]. Most Pogo Guys merely stand in a specific spot and jump over and over. |

| | Unlike the [[Stilt Guy]]s, the Pogo Guys do no need to be dismounted from their ride to be attacked and thus can be defeated by throwning a [[Yoshi Egg]] at the exposed Shy Guy or [[swallow]]ing it. Also, like normal [[Shy Guys]], the color of the rider can be changed by [[Ground Pound]]ing near it. |
